witnessed a beautiful calm...
i entered the room where my baby had peacefully drifted to sleep this morning. i peered into the nest of bunched blankets and pillows that i had so strategically placed around him. there in the middle he lay, chubby fist outstretched and eyes wide open; so still and calm that i found myself resisting an itch to poke him for some type of movement. then it came, a sweet fluttered breath and a yawn...my heart melted. he began to coo softly, letting me know that he had awoke from his slumber; undoubtedly having dreamed the softest, most comfortable dreams one could ever hope to dream. such a beautiful calm.

Coty! How fun to hear from you. I found your blog too, but didn't leave a message because I didn't know if you remembered me! How fun to see you with a family and I loved the pix of you and Colton! He is one of my strongest memories from Seminary. I just loved him and your whole family! How lucky you are to be in Stillwater! We love that place!
My sisters are in OK! It's sad I couldn't be there with them! Babies are so precious aren't they?!
Coty, how fun to read your comments on your life and kids. I am so happy to see what a great mom you are. I miss having you pop in the house.
Don and I went to Rexburg last weekend and attended Tyler's graduation. ... and played with Hanna, what a little cutie! I hope that you will get to see them soon. We went to Courtney's baby shower while we were there. She is as beautiful as ever.
Thanks again for sharing your life with us. Janie
Beautiful...one of the tender mercies of our Lord.
How beautiful - I love experiencing those moments with my son. And thanks for reiterating on my blog - I needed it. Especially since my supervisor tried to talk me into staying with them this morning...
That's what makes being a mom worth it.
Hey Coty, Your blog is adorable. I added you on my blog. I just started blogging and am addicted instantly. How do you like the move and new job??? Hope your doing fabulous! miss seeing you in the ward!
Thanks for this beautiful post. With my girls being 7 and 10, I often forget those sweet and pure moments of checking up on them while they were sleeping and just waiting to hear them take a small breath. I appreciate the reminder of precious moments like that.
i love those precious moments. i often peek in on Tag and do the exact same thing. I love the innocence of little babies.
